…
Takair and I looked at each other in fear. We both nodded and rushed down the steps. Yoru quickly followed us, barking along to way to Takair, I wasn't understanding most of it. I noticed how Yoru turned into that type of dog. Very loyal. Serious. Determined. No wonder.
When we went down stairs, Yoru did not lie, Doctor Hujuski was sitting on the wooden kitchen table, sipping on a cup of tea. His eyes looked at us. I went behind Takair for protection.
"Well, hello dear." a women said happily as she balanced she grocery bags. She was almost about to drop them when at a instant, Hujuski grabbed a bag and placed it on the kitchen counter.
"You should be careful." Hujuski said slightly. That made Takair's mother blush slightly. At least it was noticeable on her face. I noticed Takair tightened a bit. I wrapped my arms around his neck to calm him down. I placed my head on his back since he was a little taller than me. Hey, I was short. I sniffed at his uniform shirt. It smelled of lemongrass. Heavenly.
"I'm tired. Come to bed." I whispered to him. I felt Hujuski's eyes on me since I said that. I was too tired to think straight, to even pay attention that his mother was probably looking at us too.
"Who is this Takair?" I heard his mother asked. Takair grabbed on the my hand that was on his neck. I thought he was going to move it since his mother was looking, but he didn't.
"Mom, this is Ai Coddington. Uh…my…girlfriend." Takair said, sounding a little nervous. I opened my eyes to look at Takair's mother.
One word described her: Beautiful.
Black, silky long hair that was placed into a low ponytail. Her eyes shined of a coffee brown and her make up was on light. She had that natural beauty. She looked like a mixture of me and Takair, only she has brown eyes.
Doctor Hujuski sat back down at the table and picked up his mug again. Takair's mother smiled at me. A hug smile. Happiness. Why is everyone now happy? Should I be happy? Takair pried me off and placed me next to him. His mother hugged my tightly. She smelled like perfume, opposite of Takair.
After the hug, I went back behind Takair. He grabbed my arms and placed them around his neck again. Takair's mother smiled at the both of us.
I still looked over at Doctor Hujuski. He sighed and placed his mug down on the table.
"Takair-kun…Ai-chan…" Hujuski said, "I have heard that Takair lost Yoru." My vision was getting fuzzy. Cant he just talk later? I am very tired. My legs become wobbly and Takair noticed. He moved me over to a chair and sat me down.
"Thank you." I said to him. He nodded. Then we both looked back at Hujuski. Yoru sat next to me on the floor. His ears were pointed sharp, he was being alert at the moment. Probably still cares deeply about Rin.
"So?" Takair asked Hujuski. Hujuski sipped a bit from his tea. Doctor's eyes looked intense. I stuttered.
"We should take you to the lab…get Yoru back in you." He said. I slammed my hands on the table, pissed.
"You are not going to put Yoru back into Takair. I like him the way he is! He is my boyfriend and I think I should have a say in this." I yelled at Hujuski. He stayed calm. He didn't jerk around. Takair was the complete opposite.
"How long have you two been going out?" He sipped his tea.
"Uh…"
"Eight hours." Takair simply answered.
"That is it?" Hujuski asked. He sat up from his seat. Hujuski went to us and looked at Takair, "You are coming with me to get Yoru back into you. Okay?" I shot up. My vision getting blurry and my head pounding. I grabbed on to Hujuski's forearm.
"Don't take him!" I yelled angrily, "Don't take Takair away from me! Don't do this to me again! You took Ten-ten, don't take Takair! Please! No! No!" I kept yelling, "No…no…" I whispered. Blackness surrounded me. I shook a little and black completely took over my vision and fell down the to the hard wood floor.

"Wake up…wake up…" a teen girl's voice commanded me. I opened my eyes and focused in and out, "Look, she is coming to." I noticed a teen girl looking down at me. I must have been on a couch or something. Her hair was going into my face. Black hair and brown eyes. Made me think of Kiki for a second. But it couldn't be. This girl looked generous and not sneaky. That is when I realized who it was.
"Chi!" I yelled happily. We hugged, "What are you doing here?" We parted, she looked at me confused.
"What are you talking about?" she taps me on the head, "You have been here the whole time."
"Where is Takair?" More raising eyebrows.
"Who is Takair?"
"My boyfriend."
"You have a boyfriend?" I nodded my head.
"Takair asked me out today." I said with a sweet smile.
"When did you talk to him? Over the phone just now when you went piss for, like, an hour?"
"No. I talked to him first period when I was at school." she raised her eyebrow again at me. Did she know anything?
"New student?"
"Fairly new. Came here about a couple of months ago. My childhood friend."
"So, are you ready to hang out with Haku and Shino? I think we agreed to meet at the mall today. I think Zabuza is joining." I nodded happily.
Before we walked outside, Chi handed me a mask (the kind the Songo wears in her demon slayer outfit on InuYasha. Look on the internet to see the picture, it is not on my profile…sadly). I looked at her strangely.
"What is this?" I asked her. She put her mask on. The string that tied it was blue. Mine was pink.
"You must have gotten knocked hard on the head." she said. He voice was a little covered. I placed my mask on. Why were we wearing this? Chi opened the door. It looked fine. This I saw Chi point up at the sky. So I looked too. It was grey. Swirls of gas was noticeable. I gasped. Poisonous gas?
Once we hit the mall, we went around till I noticed a sign.
'Clean Air'
Chi took off her mask. Sighing in relief. I did as well.
"What was that?" I asked her. Chi grabbed on to my hand and headed me towards a table. We sat and she looked serious at me.
"You don't remember…do you?" she asked me. I shook my head at her. She sighed, "It all happened about three months ago. Ai…a lot of people have died. This is poisonous gas that is everywhere now. Effecting a lot of villages. This was the newest ones. One, in two months, would have the gas for a year! This is the worse. Since you cant remember your past at the moment. You know Zabuza…don't you?" I simply nod, "He was infected." I gasped in shock. Zabuza? Haku's boyfriend? He was going to die? Chi continued, "I tried not look at it as a bad thing, maybe, it is a good thing. The world is getting what it disserved. But…" she bit the bottom of her lip, "since Zabuza was infected. I dunno. I think very differently now. Who will have it next? When will the gas go away? When…" she choked, on the verge of crying, "Ai…my parents died because of it. That is why you offered to stay with me…remember? Don't you remember?" I shook my head.
"Sorry, Chi, I don't remember. Last I remember…hey! Did you ever hear from Itachi?" I asked her. She raised her eyebrow at me.
"Who the hell is that?" Now I was confused.
"Your boyfriend. Hello? Is Chi in there? You guys loved each other." Chi smirked at me.
"You must have been dreaming."
"I told you, I wasn't dreaming!"
"You never said that." Chi pointed out to me. I rolled my eyes, "On a happy note. I see Haku over there with Shino."
She remembers Shino…and Nymph. Everyone from Mist. Why doesn't see remember anyone from Konoha. She went there. That is it!
"Chi!" I yelled happily, "When did I come back to Mist?"
"What are you talking about?" Chi snorted, "You never left Mist." I founded out what happened.
"I must have came to live with you before the poisonous gas came, ne?" Chi nodded.
"The day before. Just to hang out. But once the gas came-" Haku and Shino came over. We waved at them, "any way, once the gas came, my parents told you to say at my house for a while. And you did. That is when…w…well, you get it." I nodded, "You haven't left since." She ended that with a smile. My body shook, as if someone was moving me. I ignored it and tried to stay still.
"So," Haku began, "What should we do?" Shino just shrugged. I was still interested on Chi's problem. Maybe everyone had it. They probably don't remember much before the gas came.
"Chi…maybe the gas is infecting you." I said, "Maybe, it is infecting your memory some how." Everyone laughed. I looked over at Haku, "Haku…you are my brother…don't you remember?" Haku raised his eyebrow.
"No," he simply answered, "we are friends Ai."
"No!" I stood up from my seat, "My parents died! Remember?"
"From the gas? Everyone has." Shino said. I shook my head. My head hurt. I felt cold. I could hardly concentrate.
"No! No! They died form a car crash a while ago. Haku, your mother was asked to take care of me, don't you remember. You have to!" Everyone shook their head. I was so confused. I quickly put my mask on and ran out of the mall.
I didn't care where I was going, as long as I got away from that place. I slowed down a bit, mostly because I could hardly breath through the mask.
"Yo…Rin." I person said. I gasped and shot my head to the left. There was Kiki. She didn't have a mask on. She had a mischievous smirk placed on her lips.
"What are you doing here?" I asked, as if I was in a hurry, "Put a mask on, you will get killed if you don't!" Kiki chuckled.
"Aw, I don't need one…and either do you." That is when it hit me. My eyes narrowed. I took off my mask, trusting her.
"What is your real name?" Kiki's smirk got wider.
"It is-"
"Ai! Are you crazy?!" A teen yelled. I looked over to see Chi and the rest running to me. Chi grabs my shoulders and slaps me hard across the face, "Are you trying to kill yourself?" I put on my mask.
"Yeah, I think you are mental tripping." Haku said as he raised an eyebrow. I looked around…no Kiki. I sigh, thinking that I may be crazy as well.
"I'm sorry. I wont do that again." I reassured them. Yet, I bet they didn't believe me. I felt someone moving me again. Chi. I think. But Chi lets go and I could still feel it. The rocking of back and forth. Like someone wants me to know something. I look behind me. That is when I saw Kiki looking at me, her hands shoved in her sweatshirt pocket. I kept staring at her. Her brown eyes melted through me. I needed to know more about her.
"Ooi!(1)" Haku yelled at me, "Are you paying attention?" I didn't look away from Kiki, fearing that if I did, I would not see her again.
"I'm sorry guys." I said to them, "I have to go for a second. Stay here." I started to walk towards Kiki. I noticed that she moved a bit, away from me. My pace quicken, "Wait!" I yelled at her, she was getting more distance. But I didn't know why, since it looked like she wasn't moving, "Ooi! What is your real name? Tell me now!" Her body disappeared. I couldn't see her any more. Chi was right behind me the whole time.
"Who was that?" Chi asked me as she was panting. I took off my mask so I could breath better, probably a dumb mistake, but I did it any way, "Ai! Please, put your mask on! I don't want to loose you too. For god sake's damn it!" I closed my ears to shut her up. I shook my head.
"Kiki…" I whispered, "Name! Name! Tell me your name."
"Araita," I heard a whisper.
"Kiki! Your name is Araita?" I asked out loud.
"Are you okay Ai?" Chi asked me. I nodded at her. Then looked around for Kiki, not finding her. I sighed, then it hit me like a brick wall.
"Araita! A demon, Kiki is a demon!"
"I'm watching you." Kiki harshly whispered in my ear.
ZzZ
I woke up screaming. That was a dream as well. I was on Takair's bed. I glanced over at the clock, two in the morning.
Shit.
I have been sleeping for about ten hours. What happened to Yoru? Takair? Doctor Hujuski? All I knew was that Kiki was a demon…like me. As long as that part is true. Is the gas going to happen as well? I hope not. Nymph would die. Chi's parents would die. Zabuza would be infected. I cant have that happen. Tears poured down my eyes.
I picked up the phone, not even remembering what time it was. I needed to call two people and find one in this house. I dialed a number. The phone rang a couple of times and the person I wanted to call picked up,
"Hello?" her voice was tired and annoyed. I sighed in relief, almost happy to hear her voice. I smiled brightly.
"Morning, Chi-san." I said happily. Chi snorted.
"Morning? Is it that early?"
"Two, to be exact."
"Why the fuck did you call me at this hour?" there was a pause, I didn't feel like answering, "Oh my god! Did anything happen to Itachi?" I felt like a whole weight was lifting from my shoulders when she asked that question. She remembered Itachi.
"Oh, I had…uh…so! How are your parents?"
"Why would you ask a question like that?"
"Listen, I have a new boyfriend. Takair. He practices Wicca. He gave me a dream spell so I would dream of the future. And…I did have a dream. A dream about you."
"What happened?"
"Both your parents died. I moved in with you. Poisonous gas was everywhere. Nymph died and Zabuza was infected with the poison."
"No fucking way! Are you serious? This cant be true."
"It is. I want you to come over to the Uchia mansion on Saturday, Nymph will be there too. I will explain everything."
"Okay. See you then. I have school soon, so, uh…I would like to catch some sleep if you don't mind." I giggled.
"Okay! Okay! Ja ne." She hung up the phone. I did as well. I needed someone to say that everything is alright. I would just look for Takair, my boyfriend! But…I want to listen to the person who makes me stutter every time he speaks to me. Then I will look for Takair. I dialed the number. It rang once and someone picked up,
"Mochimochi (2)," the teen said over the phone. I twirled my fingers a bit.
"Morning, Sasuke-kun." I said back to him. I held my giggle since I realized I used a suffix. I heard morning on the other side.
"So it is morning." I blushed and shivered at his voice. I smiled widely.
"I had a nightmare."
"And…"
"I'm scared. I thought you were dead." I totally lied about that. Only because I want him to say I am alright. I sounded very scared. I felt that he was more alert.
"Where are you?"
"Takair's house. I fell asleep around four in the afternoon. I just woke up now. So…are you okay?"
"I should be asking the same to you."
"I'm okay. Just a little shaky."
"I'm fine, okay? Everything will be fine." I smiled when he said that, "Now go back to bed. See you at school tomorrow."
"Okay, bye." I hung up the phone. I sighed deeply and got off his comfortable bed.
I walked down the hall. It was dark and cold. I noticed I was in black, baggy sweatpants with a white long beater. I wondered who changed me. Maybe it was Takair's mother. I kept looking through the hall. Sensing that Takair wasn't on this floor. I noticed stairs and went down them.
That is when I felt a cold breeze on me.
"Takair?" I asked, "Yoru?" I walked into the kitchen. I noticed a mug that was empty on the wooden table.
I repeated his name. I felt someone move in the living room. I gasped and my heart pounded. I looked around and walked towards the room. Once I walked in, I saw Takair one the couch, a cover up to his chin. I smiled and shook him a bit.
He didn't wake.
I shook him even more. He still didn't wake. I pulled off his covers. He still wore his uniform. He shivered from the cold. I shook him again.
"Wake up Takair." I said to him. I saw his eyes flicker open. He smiled a bit at me. Takair sits up and sighs, "Are you okay?"
"I had a dream. But, I am okay. Did you have a dream about Kiki…or what ever he name is?" I just nodded my head at him with a smile on my face.
"I did. Her name isn't Kiki." I said down next to him, sitting on the white covers, "Her name is Araita."
"Her name means ferret?"
"That could be a clue. She could have a demon in her…like me." Takair looked away from me.
"And me," he said quietly. But I still heard him. I gasped, now loosing it.
"Yoru is in you now? Is Yoru gonna take over your body again?" I asked angrily. Takair shot his head at me and I noticed his eyes, they were blue, "I'm sorry."
"It's okay…I guess."
"But Kiki…or Araita," Takair taps his chin.
"What." Takair stops me, "That seems too easy. I think it is too easy that she called herself ferret and expects us to think that her demon is a weasel. Best be called Itachi." I giggled. Itachi means 'weasel'.
"I know, but what if it was meant to be obvious. Or, maybe it is real. Maybe that is her real name…uh…I don't know…" Takair pulled me for a hug. We stayed there for a while, enjoying the moment.
ZzZ
The next day of school was boring. Lunch was the only interesting one. I noticed how Takair hasn't changed. I smiled at that. Neji wouldn't stop glancing over at me while I was talking with Nymph. He has been getting strange lately. Takair was talking with the guys.
Ten-ten decided to complain to Neji about what has been happening with Neji and me. That is when she ran to the bathroom crying her eyes out, Neji quickly followed after her.
"She is a cry baby at times." Nymph pointed out to me. I just stared at her. That is when a boy came outside. He looked so familiar to me. I kept staring at him. Nymph tapped me on the head, "Hey! Don't be gawking over the transfer student. You have a boyfriend, ya know." I just nodded at her.
I stared at him. Blonde long hair, the same length as Sasuke. With golden eyes that looked so perfect. He noticed me and smirked. I shivered, now realizing who it is. I scream,
"Oh. My. God."
